ABSTRACT The integration of biostratigraphical, wireline log, geophysical and available geochronological ages has identified two principal periods volcanism in the Faroe–Shetland Rockall basins. first is pre-breakup, upper Danian to lower Thanetian: basins, isolated volcanic activity from 62 Ma 58.7 areas closely linked SSW–NNE structural fabric continental margin. Volcanic was concentrated at ...

Planktonic foraminifera and major palynomorph groups (i.e. terrestrial, marine, and amorphous organic matter) of the Campanian-Selandian strata of the Gurpi Formation were studied to evaluate the changes in the Zagros paleobasin in southwestern Iran. Planktonic foraminifera were categorized into four morphotypes according to their paleodepth, extending from Morphotype 1, comprising surface gene...

Calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy reveals a continuous depositional record through the Upper Cretaceous‒Paleocene succession in Zagros Basin; southwest Iran (southeastern part of Neo-Tethys), especially Cretaceous‒Paleogene and Danian‒Selandian boundaries. The upper Gurpi Formation lower Pabdeh were investigated. assemblages from these formations are characterized by abundant, diverse mode...

A highly resolved record of stable carbon isotope values (?13C) the Late Cretaceous to Palaeogene (Cenomanian – Danian) was generated from ditch-cuttings material recovered Shearwater A9 hydrocarbon production well, Field, Central North Sea. The profile ?13C integrated with calcareous nannofossil and foraminifera biostratigraphy provide an stratigraphy for Chalk Group. Detailed correlation betw...
